I started Gender Splendour in 2013, as a non-binary Gender Studies MA student, just wanting to organise all the thoughts I was having during the course. Now I hope it can be a resource for others - people of allof genders / sexes / sexualities andnone - to question norms and assumptions about sex, gender and the gender binary.

By examining what we take for granted about bodies and identities, and really thinking about what these things called 'sex' and 'gender' mean, the aim is to foster an environment ofgender and sexualself-determination for all.

Gender Splendour is about working towards a world free from gender policing; where diverse bodies, identities and self-expression are respected; and where those who transgress gender norms and ideals are not subject to stigma, discrimination or violence.
